More Va Va Voom Than You Can Handle: Burlesque in the I.E.
Last weekend was Kitten DeVille and the beautiful Carolina Moon and friends at Back to the Grind. I heard the show was faboo and was sorry I couldn’t make it with my stapled foot and crutches. I will definitely catch the next one.
This weekend, Buckingham Burlesque performs at the Pomona American Legion. I would love to hang out at the American Legion, especially for a burlesque show.
AOL’s city guide for Los Angeles lists their top 11 burlesque attractions, which I thought were all in LA but if you look a little closer, half are in Las Vegas and some in New York.
The best of all is Dita Von Teese. I would love to see her. She is absolutely beautiful. She had a local show a while back, which I missed. I probably broke or injured something back then too. I’m a regular Johnny Knoxville sometimes. Anyway, she has a couple of private shows coming up this week, in France and Italy. She will be in Las Vegas, as a guest judge for the Crazy Horse, March 3rd – 6th. Who knew that it was so prestigious? Apparently, it is a BIG deal to be chosen as part of the Crazy Horse dance troupe. You’ve got to have it all – formal dance training, a certain look and natural sophistication. Not sure what all of that means, but then again, I’m not a burlesque dancer.
For all you ever wanted to know about burlesque, get your curvy ass to the Tease-O-Rama convention. This year’s dates haven’t been announced yet but it was in October/San Francisco last year. Maybe it will be closer this year.
